Yes and no: There have been 3 different HPV vaccines. Against 2/4 or 9 HPV strains. There are dozens of HPV strains but at least 7 (mainly 2) associated with cervical cancer. It is great that you had one of the vaccines, but you must remain vigilant for your lifetime. To get cervical cancer you just need a cervix, the rest is incidental and unpredictable. You will need to get your pap smears.
